Grasslands are areas where the vegetation is dominated by grasses (Poaceae), however sedge (Cyperaceae) and rush (Juncaceae) families can also be found. Grasslands occur naturally on all continents except Antarctica. Grasslands are found in most ecoregions of the Earth.For example, there are five terrestrial ecoregion classifications (subdivisions) of the temperate grasslands, savannas, and shrublands biome (' ecosystem '), which is one of eight terrestrial ecozones of the Earth's surface.rasslands are areas where the vegetation is dominated by grasses (Poaceae), however sedge (Cyperaceae) and rush (Juncaceae) families can also be found.

These biomes include the tropical forest, savanna, desert, chaparral, grassland, temperate forest, taiga or boreal forest, and tundra. Each biome is distinctive due to the amount of annual precipitation, number of frost-free days and other physical and biological factors.The grassland biome covers about one-quarter of the Earthâs land surface and in North America grasslands account for about 15 percent of the continent.Ecological processes such as fire and precipitation help to maintain the unique character of grasslands.he grassland biome covers about one-quarter of the Earthâs land surface and in North America grasslands account for about 15 percent of the continent.
